a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the world's truly great estates, giving rare total privacy on Manalapan's prestigious barrier island, just south of Palm Beach. Cloaked in a breathtaking world-class botanical garden oasis, this unparalleled island-like paradise uniquely and seamlessly joins two sublime old Florida settings-one on the dune-dash fringed ocean beachfront, the other on the bay-like Intracoastal with dock and pier-through to passage ways on the grounds and an irreproducible gallery passageway within the residence.
The property includes 1,200 feet of ocean frontage. Zillow says it's worth a mere $68 million.
